Since entertainment reviews across every industry have by and large become another component in whitewashed marketing, it's not really much of a distinction to make between tacit promotion by a reviewer and their review.
When Weinstein told casting directors that actresses that rebuffed him were difficult to work with and promoted to films of those that didn't, I'm sure his biases weren't as transparent in light of his professional reputation. Was that not a breach of ethics on multiple fronts?

- vertex-four 8y agoI’m not entirely sure what you’re on about - barely anyone went after Nathan Grayson after the reveal of the alleged incident. Isn’t he the one who supposedly breached reviewing ethics through some mythical article?
- themaninthedark 8y agoGamergate went after Kotaku and tried to get them to do something about Nathan Grayson's conduct. http://deepfreeze.it/outlet.php?o=Kotaku http://deepfreeze.it/outlet.php?o=Kotaku At some point one of Kotaku's editors(maybe, its been a while) stated that there were no ethical violations. Gamergate then worked to boycott Kotaku and get advertisers to move away from the site.

A great many people in Hollywood began to ignore Weinstein's claims after they became public (to the industry) knowledge, though this was unfortunately too late for some of his earlier victims like Asia Argento and Annabella Sciorra.
